The Apache Derby project is pleased to announce feature release 10.9.1.0.
Apache Derby is a subproject of the Apache DB project. Derby is a pure
Java relational database engine which conforms to the ISO/ANSI SQL and
JDBC standards. Derby aims to be easy for developers and end-users to
work with.
Derby 10.9.1.0 can be obtained from the Derby download site:
http://db.apache.org/derby/derby_downloads.html.
Derby 10.9.1.0 contains the following new features:
* NATIVE authentication - Derby now provides better credentials
management to replace BUILTIN authentication.
* JDBC 4.1 escape syntax - Most of Derby's JDBC 4.1 support was
provided in release 10.8.1.2. This release supplies the remaining bits:
object mapping and new escape syntax.
* Multi-column EXISTS subqueries - Multi-column SELECT lists are
now allowed in EXISTS subqueries.
In addition, Derby 10.9.1.0 contains many bug, security, and
